100 * There is one such structure in the mdp->heapinfo array per block used in that heap,

104 * - full busy blocks: used when we are asked to malloc a block which size is > BLOCKSIZE/2
105 * In this situation, the full block is given to the malloc.
107 * - fragmented busy blocks: when asked for smaller amount of memory.
108 * Fragment sizes are only power of 2. When looking for such a free fragment,
109 * we get one from mdp->fraghead (that contains a linked list of blocks fragmented at that
110 * size and containing a free fragment), or we get a fresh block that we fragment.
112 * - free blocks are grouped by clusters, that are chained together.
113 * When looking for free blocks, we traverse the mdp->heapinfo looking
114 * for a cluster of free blocks that would be large enough.
116 * The size of the cluster is only to be trusted in the first block of the cluster, not in the middle blocks.
118 * The type field is consistently updated for every blocks, even within clusters of blocks.
119 * You can crawl the array and rely on that value.
122 * - make room to store the backtrace of where the blocks and fragment were malloced, too.
